A review by kahlan
The Wall of Winnipeg and Me by Mariana Zapata

5.0

my first read of Mariana Zapata and if her other books are like this, she may become one of my fave authors.

the definition of slow burn is this book. some of my favorite tropes: grumpy/sunshine, forced proximity, one has always secretly loved the other. it just doesn't get better. one of my favorite scenes is when Aiden loses the game and she goes to the family room wondering if he even wants her their and then he sees her and the relief in his eyes and he kisses her!!! i mean pls kill me now that was so cute and wholesome, so feel good. another is when he is actually at her marathon run and she didn't know like how sweet! they both don't want to reveal their feelings and either be rejected or make this situtation more than what it actually is and as it's only Vanessa's point of view we only see her struggle but i wish we got a few chapters in Aiden's pov
